ADXL335
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADXL335 is a complete 3-axis acceleration measurement
system. The ADXL335 has a measurement range of 3 g minimum. It contains a polysilicon surface-micromachined sensor
and signal conditioning circuitry to implement an open-loop
acceleration measurement architecture. The output signals are
analog voltages that are proportional to acceleration. The
accelerometer can measure the static acceleration of gravity
in tilt-sensing applications as well as dynamic acceleration
resulting from motion, shock, or vibration.
The sensor is a polysilicon surface-micromachined structure
built on top of a silicon wafer. Polysilicon springs suspend the
structure over the surface of the wafer and provide a resistance
against acceleration forces. Deflection of the structure is measured using a differential capacitor that consists of independent
fixed plates and plates attached to the moving mass. The fixed
plates are driven by 180 out-of-phase square
waves. Acceleration deflects the moving mass and unbalances
the differential capacitor resulting in a sensor output whose
amplitude is proportional to acceleration. Phase-sensitive
demodulation techniques are then used to determine the
magnitude and direction of the
acceleration.
MECHANICAL SENSOR
The ADXL335 uses a single structure for sensing the X, Y,
and Z axes. As a result, the three axes sense directions are
highly orthogonal and have little cross-axis sensitivity.
Mechanical misalignment of the sensor die to the package is
the chief source of cross-axis sensitivity. Mechanical
misalignment
can, of course, be calibrated out at the system level.
PERFORMANCE
Rather than using additional temperature compensation circuitry, innovative design techniques ensure that high performance
is built in to the ADXL335. As a result, there is no quantization
error or nonmonotonic behavior, and temperature hysteresis
is very low (typically less than 3 mg over the 25C to +70C
temperature range).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
It is often useful to know the peak value of the noise. Peak-topeak noise can only be estimated by statistical methods. Table
5 is useful for estimating the probabilities of exceeding various
peak values, given the rms value.

SELF-TEST
The ST pin controls the self-test feature. When this pin is set
to VS, an electrostatic force is exerted on the accelerometer
beam. The resulting movement of the beam allows the user to
test if the accelerometer is functional. The typical change in
output
is 1.08 g (corresponding to 325 mV) in the X-axis, +1.08 g
(or +325 mV) on the Y-axis, and +1.83 g (or +550 mV) on
the Z-axis. This ST pin can be left open-circuit or connected
to
common (COM) in normal use.

ADXL335
The ADXL335 output is ratiometric, therefore, the output
sensitivity (or scale factor) varies proportionally to the
supply voltage. At VS = 3.6 V, the output sensitivity is typically 360 mV/g. At VS = 2 V, the output sensitivity is
typically 195 mV/g.
